PA02


PA02.1 - Position

**Form Purpose
Use Position (PA02.1) to define formal positions.

**Processing Effect
The following position information only defaults for Level 1 positions:
salary class, pay frequency, pay grade, exempt employee, overtime plan code,
expense account information, security level, security location, and annual
hours.

Currency does not default for any position level.

**More Information
If you use formal positions, you define position rules in Position Rules
(PA06.1) that describe your position management business requirements.
Position rules must be established before positions can be defined.

The position defaults you define in Position Item Attributes (HR10.2)
automatically fill in position information on employee and requisition records
when you use the default option.

You can budget and track positions and the FTE (Full-Time Equivalents)
factors for each process level and department.

You assign effective dates to track historical data for positions codes. For
example, if the job associated with a position changes, you can create a new
effective dated record with the new information. There is certain automated
history correction functionality available which is specified on the Special
Processing tab. The special processing is available for the most recent
position record only.
